A laugh-out-loud, page-turning novel from TOP 100 bestselling author of Time Out Emma MurraySaoirse may just have to wing it... When her husband David announces he’s been offered a job in New York, Saoirse is thrilled. The glamour of the big city, the shopping, the culture, not to mention the free Manhattan apartment and business class air fare – what’s not to like? There’s just the small matter of making it work for their daughter, five-year-old Anna, who isn’t so keen to leave her friends and school behind. The Big Apple in the middle of summer isn’t quite the holiday Saoirse envisaged, and with David away with work, New York apartment sizes on the miniscule side, and the pace of life faster than the sleepy London suburbs, solo ex-pat parenting pushes Saoirse to her limits. And as the pressure builds and ‘faking it till she makes it’ isn’t cutting it, there’s only one thing for it – Saoirse and Anna need a new plan, and ‘Winging It’ might be their best option…Emma Murray returns with this laugh-out-loud funny, compulsively page-turning adventure about parenting, travelling, and finding your tribe – on both sides of the pond.

Může Kristus vytetovaný na zádech obrátit svého nositele na pravou víru? Ani v druhé povídkové sbírce Flannery O'Connorové nechybí její oblíbená témata: víra či nevíra a důsledky z toho plynoucí, rodinné rozbroje, rasové postoje, mezilidská nepochopení a nedorozumění, otázky vykoupení či poznání světa - to vše autorka opět podává v dokonalém absurdním tvaru. Flannery O'Connorová sbírku dokončila těsně před smrtí v roce 1964 a jejího vydání se nedočkala. Název úvodní povídky i celé sbírky pochází z citátu francouzského filozofa a náboženského myslitele Pierra Teilharda de Chardin o cílené evoluci směřující do bodu Omega. Sbírka vychází česky poprvé v úplné, originální podobě.

Unputdownable.’ - Mary Harper, author of Getting Somalia Wrong?''A brave and searching book, rich in history and fierce in spirit. The best sort of travel writing: handsome prose, teeming with humanity and an unwavering sense of wonder.'' - Justin Marozzi, author of Baghdad, City of Peace, City of BloodIn 1879, King Leopold II of Belgium launched an ambitious plan to plunder Africa’s resources. The key to cracking open the continent, or so he thought, was its elephants — if only he could train them.And so he commissioned the charismatic Irish adventurer Frederick Carter to ship four tamed Asian elephants from India to the East African coast, where they were marched inland towards Congo. The ultimate aim was to establish a training school for African elephants.Following in the footsteps of the four elephants, Roberts pieces together the story of this long-forgotten expedition, in travels that take her to Belgium, Iraq, India, Tanzania and Congo. The storytelling brings to life a compelling cast of historic characters and modern voices, from ivory dealers to Catholic nuns, set against rich descriptions of the landscapes travelled.Roberts digs deep into historic records to reckon with our broken relationship with animals, revealing an extraordinary — and enduring — story of colonial greed, ineptitude, hypocrisy and folly.‘A cautionary tale from the early days of the Scramble for Africa, but poignant and scholarly too. Roberts writes beautifully.’ - Thomas Pakenham, author of The Scramble for Africa‘A rich, engrossing tapestry of greed and disregard for life … Few write as compellingly as Roberts, this is her as only she can write.’ - Amal Chatterjee, author of Across the Lakes

Tajemství a mravy, soubor přednášek a esejů věhlasné jižanské prozaičky Flannery O'Connorové, který po její smrti sestavili její přátelé Robert a Sally Fitzgeraldovi, působí i dnes jako pronikavá sonda odhalující nešvary spisovatelů, čtenářů i učitelů literatury. O'Connorová se sžíravou ironií kritizuje čtenářský vkus, který se od přelomu 50. a 60. let 20. století, kdy její texty vznikaly, nijak nepozvedl, vtipně vysvětluje začínajícím autorům, čeho se mají při psaní povídek a románů vyvarovat, a na příkladech ukazuje, že se učitelé literatury nejvíce ze všeho bojí literatury samé. Kniha, z níž v jednom ze svých sporadických rozhovorů citoval i Cormac McCarthy, je jedním ze zásadních amerických literárněvědných textů a to, že jeho autorka nebyla profesí literární teoretička, je jen ku prospěchu věci: jednotlivé texty se vyznačují stejnou živostí podání a ostrým, průrazným stylem jako autorčiny prózy. Vydání knihy podpořilo Ministerstvo kultury České republiky.

The American South. A turbulent world, fraught with the Civil Rights struggle and toxic religious tensions. Against the backdrop of mountainous sunsets and backwater shacks, deserted highways and small-town gas stations, people forge their own lives. We encounter murderers, escaped convicts, dysfunctional families, conmen, fanatics, farmhands, Bible salesmen, troubled children, gangsters, hypocrites, misfits and outcasts. These are characters marked by grotesque flaws, darkly humorous and oddly beautiful. Their complex humanity is revealed in apocalyptic moments of Gothic horror, absurdity and violence that transform all who witness them - and us, too, as we realise that nothing in our moral universe is black and white. Flannery O’Connor is the supreme tragicomic chronicler of these bodies and souls, her classic stories infused with the dazzling force of prophecy as one of the century’s most visionary writers.

It’s a book for our time.” – Maria ShriverFrom Emma Heming Willis, wife of Bruce Willis, a deeply personal and richly compassionate supportive guide that helps caregivers care for themselves while they navigate a loved one''s dementia.The day Emma Heming Willis’ husband, Bruce Willis, was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD), all they were given was a pamphlet and told to check back in a few months. With no hope or direction, Emma walked out of that doctor’s appointment frozen with fear, confusion and a sense that her world had just fallen apart.In fact, it had. Bruce and Emma had their story written, their future mapped out. Yet all those dreams crumbled with that diagnosis, and Emma felt alone and more isolated than ever. How would she care for her husband while parenting their young daughters?At that devastating time, Emma just wanted someone who''d been through it to tell her, “This feels terrible right now. Your life is in shambles. But it’s going to be okay. Here are some things to think about and put in place so you cannot just survive but thrive.”With The Unexpected Journey, Emma has written the book she wishes she’d been handed on the day of Bruce’s diagnosis: a supportive guide to navigating the complicated, heartbreaking, and transformative experience that is caregiving for your loved one. Weaving her personal journey as a care partner with the latest research and insights from the world’s top dementia, caregiving, and integrative experts she offers the guidance and wisdom caregivers everywhere so desperately need to hear, including:A diagnosis isn’t just a label, it’s a starting point.

But you do have a choice in terms of how you approach it and reframe it.Caregivers are human so you aren’t always going to be patient and selfless. You have challenges and struggle with conflicting emotions and that’s okay.Ultimately, The Unexpected Journey shows you how to care for yourself while doing one of the hardest, most heartbreaking jobs in the world.

While the match is suitable in every way, Emma cannot help sighing over her loss, for now only she and her father are left at Hartfield. Mr. Woodhouse is too old and too fond of worrying about trivialities to be a sufficient companion for his daughter. The Woodhouses are the great family in the village of Highbury. In their small circle of friends, there are enough middle-age ladies to make up card tables for Mr. Woodhouse, but there is no young lady to be a friend and confidant to Emma. Lonely for her beloved Miss Taylor, now Mrs. Weston, Emma takes under her wing Harriet Smith, the parlor boarder at a nearby boarding school. Although not in the least brilliant, Harriet is a pretty seventeen-year-old girl with pleasing, unassuming manners and a gratifying habit of looking up to Emma as a paragon..

They''re taking turns sleeping on the sofa in her nan''s tiny flat - and desperately trying to come up with an escape plan.  Emma is struggling with her family, struggling at school where the girls are bitchy towards her and the boys only seem to want one thing, and struggling with never having enough money for anything, ever. Just as she''s contemplating quitting school to get a real job, she meets two men who convince her that she has a shot at modelling.
